I can put in links or move it.
I will give you more feedback as I work through this setup of mine.
A couple of points of feedback so-far: the HOWTO points you to the
Mini-HOWTO for installation. The link to the mini here[1] points back
to that page, instead of the mini.
The Mini-HOWTO places (IMO) *way* too much emphasis on that configure
script. I see now that the mini does show the commands that should be
executed by hand, so that's good, and I'll be stress testing them. The
configure script strikes me as a behemoth that's near impossible to
troubleshoot (a perl script that generates a shell script?).
A final nit: I don't see any information about setting up NAT, in the
LVS-NAT configuration, to allow the real-servers to make outbound
connections to the external network. It is fairly simple to configure
masquerading with iptables (easier with ipchains), but there's no
discussion of needing to do this in the documentation (consequently,
DNS fails on the real-servers) and there's no discussion of potential
pitfalls when using iptables and LVS together.
I don't mean to bitch; these are just things that caught my eye a
couple of weeks ago when I started looking into this; if I'm wrong,
please correct me and accept my apologies...
Thanks,
B
